> Jedi- Just out of curiosity, why did you stop taking the bupropion (sp?) with the Nardil if it was working ? I have atyp./ dysth. depression also and it is so hard to figure out...that fact alone is depressing...!
I went to see supposedly one of the top PDOCs in the country. He nixed the combination. Probably read about it in the PDR (LMAO). Put me on high dose Prozac and said to come back to the University for ECT when that didn't work. I'm saving ECT for the last resort, just before the long dirt nap!It took me quite a while to find a Doctor to but me back on Nardil after that. I live in a small community and the mental health options are dismal. There are hundreds of MDs in this town. The yellow pages lists one PDOC.
Anyway, I was on high dosage Nardil and high dosage bupropion when my PDOC retired. When you are taking a contraindicated combination of medications, you don't want the doctor prescribing it to retire!
Nardil does affect dopamine, but I think just a touch more would help me.
Be well,
